Believe it or not, some people like helping others. Some people like to be in a guild that believes in building their entire guild up so the force is strong as a whole and not just the ones who have 15 hours a day where they can sit and soak up all the DKP offered by your type of raid guild.
My time is valuable to me, this just isnt realistic. We have a few players that have very high raid attendance, why should they sit around and wait for the really casual guy to build up? Thats a recipe for your top people leaving for greener pastures.

Just because someone goes to 80% of the raids doesn't indicate how much they contribute on those raids, so the statement that "oh, well if someone is going to 80% of the raids they deserve twice as much as the guy that only goes to 40%!" This is one fault of the DKP sponge system, sponges can go and hump raid mobs every day all week, and then have tons of DKP and not contribute hardly at all to the raids.

I am just saying there are other incentives for people to take part in raids other than getting their own loots. Greed is a driving force and loot is a big incentive for many, but not all.
We keep logs of raids and check them afterwards for activity. If someone is afk for long periods of time they do not get credit for that hour of raiding. This is common in raiding guilds. If you stand around soaking exp, you WILL get called out.
